1988 Jeep Wrangler Wrangler Description

1988 Jeep Wrangler YJ Sahara
Please read entirely before bidding!
I purchased this Jeep about 4 years ago as strictly a lake jeep (driving on the dirt roads at low speeds). I have not taken it on the open roads or highways and would not recommend it until a few things have been fixed. This is a running project but has a tremendous amount of potential. Here are a list of known issues:
The Bad

Steering has a lot of play due to the extreme lift
Gas gauge does not work correctly
Wheels need to be balanced
Hard / Soft tops are both missing
Has cracks, fading, tears and missing plastic parts inside and outside
No back seat, No hard top, No soft top, No radio
Transmission leaks
4WD has never been tested (so I assume it is not functioning)
Automatic shifter is hard to get in gear for reverse and drive
No idea if the A/C works
Brakes are a little soft
Needs inspection
1 key
Mileage is around 140,000+ (not sure when the V8 was put in the Jeep)

The Good

It looks Bad A**
Total head turner with the powerful V8 350
New shocks
New radiator
New battery
New brake pads / rotors
Has a tow hitch
Super Swamper 36x12.50
Huge lift
Hard doors
Clear Texas title in hand

I do not any history on the Jeep or whom modified it to a V8 350. Contact me if you want to see the videos of it running. What you see is what you get! Great opportunity to turn this into something special.
